That really depends on the stoppup. If there is a solid in it(chicken bone, fork, etc) then using a plunger won't do any good. you should make sure the disposal is off and preferably have the backup turned off as well so it can't accidently turn on, then reach in (yeah its gonna probably be pretty gross) and pull out whatever is in it. Then you should flush water down it to see if you can clear it out. If you get everything out of the disposal and its still plugged then your evac tube is plugged, and that means you have to take apart your Plumbing (time to call a plumber).

I know of some in use with septic systems and they have not had a problem. Generally you should have your tank pumped every five years. With a garbage disposal on the system you should have your tank pump every two or three years,
